The Pre-Engineering program at the University of Southern Mississippi provides the academic background required for transfer into an engineering school at the junior (third-year) level. The pre-engineering coordinator designs each student’s program to ensure that as much course work as possible can be transferred to the engineering program designated by the student.

The engineering fields for which a Southern Miss student can prepare include, but are not limited to, Aerospace Engineering Geological Engineering, Biomedical Engineering Industrial Engineering, Chemical Engineering Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Petroleum Engineering.
